Arran Boat Song – Orions

This is a slow, mournful irish tune named after islands off the coast of Ireland.  It is in 3, and has a dotted rhythm; make sure to feel the second beat before leaving the dotted quarter at the beginning of each measure.  We’re performing this on the October 28th Skillz hour!

E minor Warm-up – Orions

Say these rhythms a bunch of times before playing them! You are in extension only on the C string for this key, E minor.  E minor is the relative minor of G major, which means they share a key signature (one sharp: F#) This is in a ‘call and response’ form, so listen to each cell, then repeat.  We’ll perform this at the Skillz Hour on Friday, October 28th!
